Dans un contexte plus informel, on peut dire "I can't wait for the weekend to end" (J'ai hâte que le week-end se termine), soulignant la fin d'une période.

En tant que verbe, "to end" signifie mettre fin à quelque chose. Par exemple, "We need to end this discussion" (Nous devons mettre fin à cette discussion) indique qu'il est temps de conclure une conversation. Ce verbe est souvent utilisé dans des contextes formels et informels.
